A series of gruesome murders shakes the town, each more brutal than the last. Yet, the police insist they are nothing more than wild animal attacks, silencing any whispers of something more sinister. But Chief Investigation Officer Vihaan Gupta isn't convinced. With his sharp instincts and relentless pursuit of justice, he teams up with forensic officer Myra Singh to uncover the truth.
Their biggest challenge? A killer who leaves no trace-no fingerprints, no weapon, no witnesses. Every crime scene is wiped clean, as if the murderer is always one step ahead. The deeper Vihaan and Myra dig, the more they realize this is no ordinary criminal. He is a mastermind, someone who understands the law and the art of deception better than anyone.
As they navigate a web of secrets, betrayals, and hidden dangers, they must race against time before the killer strikes again. But in a town where nothing is what it seems, can they outsmart a murderer who is always one step ahead? Or will they become his next victims?

Spying On My Boss |REWRITING|
REWRITTEN AS "HER SECRET INVESTIGATION" A series of past murders catch the attention of the police and the media. All the people who were killed were women, all of which had some sort of relationship with a well known and successful businessman named Asriel Parker. For some reason, the murders all point to him as the number one suspect and connection between them. The reasonable thing to do is to put him behind bars but there is one problem. "Everyone is innocent in the eyes of the law until proven guilty." There isn't a shred of evidence that actually pinpoints Asriel Parker as the culprit. With that statement in mind, Selena March, a good police officer and detective is sent undercover as his live-in Personal Assistant to dig up whatever information she can use to put the murderer behind bars. Selena has no idea what she signs up for but she knows for a fact that falling in love is not part of the whole 'undercover' mission. **** This is my first wattpad book and unfortunately, it was not really planned but I still enjoyed writing it and developing my writing skills while I was at it😊.
